Answer:
The price of the stock is $38.33
Explanation:
The dividend growth is zero on a preferred stock thus its dividends are just like a perpetuity as the stocks have no defined life. The formula for the price or value of a perpetuity or the zero growth model is,
P0 = D / r
Where,
D is the dividend
r is the required rate of return
Thus, the price of the stock is:
P0 = 3.22 / 0.084 = $38.33

When a company makes sales on account, debit accounts receivable and credit sales. Based on assessment, some or all of the receivables may be uncollectible.
To account for this, debit bad debit expense and credit allowance for doubtful debt. Should the debt become uncollectible (i.e go bad), debit allowance for doubtful debt and credit accounts receivable.

= $1,510 - $640
= $870

1) The government prohibits gas stations from selling gasoline for more than $3.40 per gallon.
This statement is an example of price ceiling as the gas stations cannot raise their price above $3.40 but can sell it at any price lower than the ceiling price of $3.40. This is binding
2) Due to new regulations, gas stations that would like to pay better wages in order to hire more workers are prohibited from doing so. This is neither a price ceiling or floor as government isn't directly affecting the price with their policy
3) The government has instituted a legal minimum price of $3.40 per gallon for gasoline. This is an example of price floor and is binding. The reason it is a price floor is because the petrol stations cannot charge a price below $3.40 but can charge any price above the floor price of $3.40
